TERMINOLOGIE ET DICTIONNAIRE DE LA MESURE ET DE LA RECHERCHE EN RELATIONS PUBLIQUES

L’analyse et les perceptions sont aujourd’hui un sujet d’actualité majeur dans le monde des affaires. Avec mes 20 ans d’expérience dans le secteur de la mesure des communications, je n’ai jamais vu autant d’intérêt pour ce sujet. Cette demande a entraîné un afflux de nouveaux et anciens fournisseurs proposant une multitude d’outils, de solutions et de services pour surveiller et évaluer les communications. Selon le wiki de Ken Burbary, plus de 220 entreprises offrent ces types de services, et ce chiffre augmente chaque jour.

Un nombre aussi élevé de fournisseurs potentiels avec des niveaux d’expérience variés peut entraîner des problèmes. L’un de ces problèmes est le manque de cohérence des résultats lorsqu’on mesure une même campagne entre différents prestataires. Un problème clé ici est que les mauvais termes et définitions sont fréquemment utilisés par les prestataires. Par exemple, les termes « ODV » (Occasion de voir), « lecture », « tirage » et « portée de l’audience » ont des significations différentes, mais dans certains cas, sont utilisés de manière interchangeable par différents fournisseurs. Il existe de nombreux autres exemples de ce type de confusion – « hits » et « vues de pages », par exemple.

En tant que secteur, si nous voulons résoudre ce problème, il est impératif que nous disions ce que nous voulons dire et que nous respections les définitions. Alors que l’industrie cherche à établir des normes et à démontrer des approches cohérentes et crédibles en matière de mesure, nous devons d’abord nous aligner sur une terminologie correcte et uniforme.

Nos partenaires à l’IPR ont produit une excellente ressource pour aider le secteur à faire exactement cela. Le Dictionnaire de la mesure et de la recherche en relations publiques explique en détail chaque terme couramment utilisé et fournit une définition claire.

DIRECTIVES POUR DÉFINIR DES OBJECTIFS MESURABLES EN RELATIONS PUBLIQUES

Définir des objectifs mesurables dans le cadre d’un plan de communication crédible au début de toute activité de relations publiques est d’une importance fondamentale. Les objectifs de communication doivent soutenir les objectifs de l’organisation. Ils doivent être SMART (Spécifiques, Mesurables, Atteignables, Réalistes et Temporels). Un plan de relations publiques doit être créé, dans lequel les objectifs sont définis avant toute action, avec une indication claire de ce à quoi le succès devrait ressembler. Les objectifs de communication doivent aller au-delà du simple comptage des résultats pour lier l’activité de communication à un changement d’attitudes et de comportements, et, au final, à un impact organisationnel.

Avoir un plan de relations publiques clairement défini et significatif, détaillant comment l’activité de communication contribuera aux résultats organisationnels souhaités, est crucial pour tout programme de communication moderne et significatif. Sans un tel plan, toute forme de mesure significative devient impossible à réaliser. Pour cette raison, l’AMEC a mis à disposition des ressources et des conseils supplémentaires pour la création d’un plan de relations publiques adapté à votre organisation.
